does nobody have any solution?
You provide the lack of real information that can be used to help you, you have not confirmed the chipset of the device you have or the reason why the driver does not work so why would anyone want to help you.

 

You reason for picking this exact specific device was based on what cireteria, cost???

 

OK so you want help, buy a plug n play supported device and forget USB, working with such a device seems to be beyond your skill level.

ohh sry ;)

 

ive got an Asus a8n-vm se with an VIA K8M890 chipset

amd 3800 x2

leopard 10.5.2

ati x1800

 

 

the usb-stick has a driver dvd but not for my mac version so i downlaoded the newest version and installed it.

then plugged in the stick an npothing happends.he do not detext it.

normally when i klick on network he should detect it.

Reboot with device plugged in, issue -f at boot prompt and see if it detects the device.

 

Due to hacks required for AMD CPU support, devices have issues, some more noticeable than others.

i found out when i start system profile and klick on usb there is my stick

 

802.11 bg Wlan

Version 0.01

Ralink

Product-ID: 0x2573

Is there a driver already in existence for the same chipset in your USB device for another manufacturer? (ex. you have TrendNET but the driver works for NetGear)

ok i reinstalled leopard and selected the ralink driver in the instalation.

 

then installled the usb driver.

ralink driber

and i do not work anyway-

There are several Ralink drivers, you need the one for the Ralink chipset used in your device and then you need to make sure that your ID's are in the Info.plist file for it to recognize your device.
